I use:

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST { HTTP::redirect https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]}

 

 

and it works great. You need an HTTP (80) virtual server with this iRule as a resource. You also need an HTTPS (443) virtual server with the same IP address. The HTTPS virtual server doesn't need the iRule.

 

 

You can also change the "[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]" part of the rule to a specific uri and it will work.

 

 

Hope this helps.
